Babies: 9 - 12 Months

how long b/w last nap and bedtime?

i have been doing 3.5- 4 hours b/w last her last nap which is usually 30min-1 hour. Do you think this is too long for an 8 month old? she has been taking over an hour to get to sleep!

Re: how long b/w last nap and bedtime?

  • my son is 7 months.. his last nap at daycare ends between 3:30 and 4pm and he's EXHAUSTED by 6:45 and asleep by 7pm.

  • I was actually going to post this question too!

    The last 2 days she has gone 3.5-4 hours from her last nap (usually ends at 3) until bed. We have been out and about granted, but she would usually fall asleep in the car, and even that is not happening. I keep wondering if she is "dropping" her last nap finally, but if so, then I think I need to get her last one a little bit later. I think 4 hours is pushing it for her.?

  • At 9.5 mo, DD is usually up about 4-5 hours between her last nap and bed (she only takes 2 naps). ?At 8 mo., she was taking 3 naps and was up about 3 hours before bed.

  • He's up between 2 and 2:30, goes to bed between 7 and 8. I wish I could get another short nap in every now and then. There are times that even though he gets 3 hours total between his 2 naps, he still seems really tired.
  • We try to have it less than 3 hours. He still needs a nap every 2 hours during the day. However, if his last nap ends at 4 or 4:30, we try to keep him up till 7. There is no sense in him taking a nap at 6 or 6:30 or he will never get to bed!
